EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Rutgers linebacker Eric LeGrand was carted off the field after making a vicious tackle on a kickoff return in the fourth quarter against Army.
LeGrand lay on the field for about five minutes after making the tackle with the game tied at 17 with less than five miunutes to play.
A backboard was placed under his back and he was taken to the locker room.
Rutgers coach Greg Schiano went over and talked to his family in the stands.
There was no immediate word on his condition.
